Series: Analysis ; September 2021.Publisher: Health Foundation, London : 2021.Description: 73p.ISBN: 9781911615637.Summary: This analysis looks at progress on the main pledges in the NHS long-term plan and the impact of Covid-19 on their delivery. It finds that the core principles set out in the long-term plan remain as relevant now as they were before Covid-19, but their implementation has been derailed. The NHS now faces major delay, disruption and increased demands on services. It concludes that alongside the recent funding increase for the NHS, the government must now work with the NHS to develop an updated strategy for delivering the NHS long-term plan. It also makes an appeal that reducing the NHS backlog should not come at the expense of addressing health inequalities already widened by Covid-19. .Subject(s): health policy | implementation | Covid-19 | pandemics | health impact assessment | patient waiting time | health inequalities | effectiveness | evaluationDigital copyAvailability: Online access List(s) this item appears in: Covid-19: health and social care recovery in England [January 2023]
